To connect the cable as shown, position the larger cable connector with its shiny metal
lip down, and connect it firmly to the device through the slot in the back of the media
bay. Connect the other end of the cable to the media bay connector on the computer.
For both connections, make sure that the securing clips are fully engaged and the con-
nector is fully seated.
To remove the cable from a device, press in on the securing clips while pulling the
connector straight out.

The media bay supports the following devices:


Diskette drive


CD-ROM drive


DVD-ROM
NOTE: Because the Microsoft Windows NT operating system does not support
DVD technology, the DVD-ROM drive is available only on computers that use the
Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition operating system. If you choose to install
Windows NT on a computer that originally came with a DVD-ROM drive, the
DVD-ROM drive will function as a CD-ROM drive.
